Nano Shock as a drying aid

Washed car today and decided to use Nano Shock as a drying aid. Sprayed onto wet surface and dried with a waffle towel. Excellent results. Easy to use. Makes drying easier and eliminates any water spots or streaks. Surface feels real slick. Picture shows the shine. And it's a very overcast & cloudy day. I recommend it. Great between waxes.

Sounds like you could use this stuff when drying the car. Then Quik Wax, and THEN Quik Deailer.

How about the Nanoskin Glide? Have you tried it? It says it can be diluted so I guess it's a better value.

I believe that is water based so it will not be hydrophobic. So spraying it on a wet vehicle may not assist in drying. I experimented with the Nano Shock as a drying aid because here in Florida we have hard water which could result in water spots.
